Only vertical members or chain link mesh shall be 2.25 inches unless slats are woven into the chain link.

The fence shall have a self-latching or self-closing gate with the release mechanism being 54 inches from the bottom of the gate or in the alternative, be placed on the pool side of the gate-3 inches from the top.
